Description of The Battle for Investment Survival
From the moment it appeared in 1935, The Battle for Investment Survival altered the perceptions, attitudes and strategies of investors all over the world. Sixty years and hundreds of thousands of copies later, it remains one of the most influential books on investing. Now, a new, updated edition of this all-time classic, including a foreword by John Rothchild, celebrates the extraordinary insights and timeless vision of Gerald Loeb.

While much has changed on Wall Street since 1935, the fundamental skills and knowledge needed to consistently make a profit remain unchanged. Organised in concise, easy-to-read chapters, the author offers everything you need to know about sound investment principles.

Distilled from over 40 years of Wall Street experience as a broker, Gerald M. Loeb's realistic approach offers readers neither short-cuts nor get-rich-quick formulas. Instead, it gives investors - whether novice or expert, individual or institutional - a sensible, uncompromising and deftly written firsthand account of how to realise significant financial return's in today's market.

The Battle for Investment Survival is a tribute to the long-term and incredible opportunities of the market as much as it is a guide to protect investors from common mistakes and pitfalls. Gerald Loeb's timeless and profound insights are sprinkled with humorous allusions and good-natured bluntness.
